Engine Swap Question...

Post by tjd2oo6 »

Hi im planning to swap a bp into either my 96' or my 97' mx3 next year and im having one slight problem.. after searching for quite some time on here the only places i have been able to find bp's for sale are in the US and well i live in the UK and dont really want to pay huge transport costs. What UK cars have a bp in them? if any at all.. also are there any UK cars that have a bpt in them? plus from what i have read it wont be a simple plug and play because of the age of my cars as from what i gathered they have a newer ecu and i will need to swap in an older ecu and wiring harness along with the bp or bpt correct?

Thanks in advance

Hi,
Allow me to direct you to one of the most resourceful sites on the internet:
Wikipedia.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mazda_B_engine#BP


There are a few people on this board that has done the new gen BP, and even fewer that has done the BP in the '94 and newer model MX-3's. While I really do hope you can find help here about it, there's a possibility you'll have to rely on the skills of locals to help you out if you do end up installing a BP.

Good luck!
